Basically the title, I received a new price with a significant price tag (at least for me). My previous ones I didn’t care much so they weren’t protected. Given that I’d like to keep this one in good shape I’d like to know your experiences: does it still make sense to buy screen protectors nowadays? If so, also on newer quality screens like Gorilla Glass Victus? Thank you for your feedback
@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Thanks for your feedback lemmings, I think I’ll get one screen protector then, what are your recommendations?
The main thing about having a screen protector to me is it having a bonus oleophobic coating besides the one that comes with your phone (and gets worn off with shit like hand sanitizer).
That means I can just chuck another one on when it eventually turns to shit and / or I wanna sell / give the phone away and I wouldn’t worry too much about “brands”.
My screen is rated Gorilla Glass Victus 2, and within 2 days of normal use (in out of front pocket) it had already developped tiny light scratches on the surface. Looking at jerryrigeverything on youtube showed how little the scratch test differed from gorrila 6 to this. So yes i would recommend getting a screen protector.
My current screen protector is the first time i get glass, and i’m glad it fixed one of the issues i have with protectors. Which is that you lose the feel of the original screen, and i always had issues with how rugged/sticky it felt. The glass i have dosent have those issues.
I went with the very popular whitestone dome and am very happy with it, but talking to friends it seems the installation method for those are more complex than others like spigen which would just be a simple application where the whitestone one has to cure with UV amongst other things.
